New PBS and PBS Kids channels on Roku offer hundreds of videos on-demand, including NOVA, Masterpiece, FRONTLINE, Super Why!, Curious George and local favorites such as First, Flicks & Quick Pics, Friday Arts, On Canvas, and On Stage at Curtis.

WHYY announced today that videos from favorite PBS and PBS KIDS programs such as American Experience, Antiques Roadshow, FRONTLINE, Masterpiece, Nature, NOVA, Super Why!, Curious George and Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood, as well as local favorites such as First, Flicks & Quick Pics, Friday Arts, On Canvas, and On Stage at Curtis are now available to consumers via the Roku® streaming platform.

Roku users will access and personalize their PBS experiences by choosing their favorite local station and sharing their email address. This will provide viewers with content from their local PBS station, anytime they want, while also giving their favorite PBS station a way to connect with them.

In addition to national and local PBS programming, viewers can access video from PBS Digital Studios, a network of short web-original videos from PBS.

"Our relationship with Roku is an important next step in our strategy to make PBS content available through a variety of platforms, while maintaining the connection between the viewer and their local station. We are happy that this partnership with Roku will deliver consumers both national PBS and PBS KIDS programs, as well as favorite video from their local PBS station, all on demand."
